On next friday, 12. February, Fritz Lang's science-fiction movie "Metropolis" will be shown on Berlinale as a world-premiere.
This fact alone is outstanding because the movie was cut directly after its world-premiere in 1927 and the extended-cut has been considered as lost. After a bad conditioned copy on 16mm celluloid had been discovered in Argentinia in 2008, almost 25 minutes out of 30 of the original run-time could be nearly restored.
The cultural tv-channel arte will broadcast from the premiere on friday at 8:15pm and will also broadcast the restored extended-cut at 8:40pm. The clue is that arte will also present "Metropolis" in native HDTV, although it hasn't been released on Blu-ray yet. In both ways it will be a television world-premiere.

For every television series comes a point when to change and to keep up with the times to make the first step into the right direction. But the series has to know when its time has come.
The threshold marking the changingpoint form the used to the new form will be shown basically on the basis of two well known series.
